"The choice is yours."

Rhodes stood there calmly, without even raising his eyelids, and said lightly: "I want to remind you that you are no longer CP9 under the command of the government, but fugitives pursued by the government." ”

"On the other hand, you should all know the information about me and the Ghost Hand Pirates, my purpose has never changed, and that is...... Hunt pirates. ”

Hearing Rhodes' words, Kaku and Gabra and the others suddenly fell silent.

Truly.

They are no longer CP9 under the command of the government, but fugitives hunted down by the government, and strictly speaking, there is no difference between them and Rhodes.

As for the second point mentioned by Rhodes...... Their information about Rhodes and the Ghost Hand Pirates is naturally clear, the Ghost Hand Pirates have never robbed civilians, and they have only been hunting down pirates from all walks of life along the way, and as for the navy that they killed, it was also a counterattack in the face of pursuit.

If Rhodes is the kind of pirate who plunders civilians and evils the sea, then there is no possibility for them to accept it at all, but the truth is that Rhodes's behavior is not fundamentally different from them to some extent.

"It's not our captain who caused you to fall into this situation, I think you know better than us, hehe......"

Lafitte's figure appeared silently.

Rhodes does not intend to use words to subdue CP9, it is absolutely impossible to do it, at most it will cause some wavering in CP9's heart, and Lafitte's task is to gradually pull CP9 into the abyss when they are shaken.

"Spandam ......"

"That bastard, sooner or later he's going to make him pay."

Under Lafitte's psychological guidance, the faces of CP9 showed anger, but this anger was not directed at Rhodes, but at Spandham, who dumped the pot and added fuel to them.

Greedy for life and afraid of death, hiding on the ship and not coming down, letting the navy protect itself, turning around and running away after the mission failed, not intending to save them at all, and putting all the blame on them.

"Ho ho ho, but if you deal with him, it will be tantamount to completely doing the right thing with the world government." Lafitte's voice seemed to have some kind of magic, making CP9, whose will waver, gradually disintegrate the faith in his heart.

But.

Not everyone is gradually guided by Lafitte.

There was a person who kept his head down slightly and had a silent expression from beginning to end, neither Lafitte's words nor the reactions of Kaku and the others who were gradually guided did not make him show any other expressions.

Rob, Lucky.

"Weakness is sin, that's your opinion."

Rhodes spoke lightly, Luqi's will was stronger than he expected, and even now, he didn't seem to waver, otherwise he would have been affected by Lafitte.

If Lu Qi influences Kaku and the others at this time, it is very likely to cause Lafitte's guidance to fail, leading to an irreversible situation.

"But isn't it a very sad thing that a very weak person has become your commander and has your destiny in his hands."

Lafitte is constantly guiding Kakugabra and the others, while Rhodes continues to talk to Luci, shaking Luqi's heart with what he knows.

Compared with other people in CP9, Lu Qi is more than one level higher in terms of potential and means, and after losing to Luffy and his gang in the original book, he was chased and killed by the government, but he was able to turn over and become the chief of CP0, and he had a five-five fight with Sabo who ate the burnt fruit.

With such strength and potential, even if he becomes the official crew member of the Ghost Hand Pirates, Rhodes is also recognized.

"I'm not going to interfere with their choices."

Lu Qi was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke calmly.

He knows what Rhodes is trying to do, and he knows what Lafitte is doing, it can't change him, it doesn't affect him, he is still Rob Ruch, the strongest person in CP9 for 800 years, he won't surrender to the pirates, he won't do things for the pirates.

However, he will not change the choice of Kaku and others.

"I am, Rob Rocky."

"To be weak is to sin...... If one day, you can be stronger than the government, then you are justice...... But at least for now, you're not. ”

"I can be loyal to justice, but not to the enemy."

Lu Qi narrated in a calm tone, and when he said this, his mind moved, and his whole body swelled suddenly, and he entered the leopard form with a little difficulty, and said, "You are the only truly qualified enemy I have encountered. ”

“……”

Rhodes looked at Lu Qi, a trace of fluctuation flashed in his eyes, a little pity, and a little sad: "If you had met me a year earlier, it would have been a very suspenseful battle." ”

"Really? That's a shame. ”

A smile appeared on Ludge's face, and the whole person pounced on Rhodes.

Bang!

Luki's body froze abruptly there, Rhodes' fist against his chest.

"Lucky!"

Kaku, Gabra and the others all exclaimed in surprise, both shocked and puzzled.

Lu Qi's body quickly recovered from his leopard form and fell to the side, his body did not add any scars, but the internal organs in his body had already been shattered.

"That's a ......"

Lafitte shook his head, fortunately he had almost completed the guidance and initial hypnosis, and Lucci had taken the initiative to make a choice, otherwise it would have fallen short.

Even so, he had to continue to exert means, and although Kaku and the others were affected, there were also greater flaws in their hearts, and he found an opportunity to invade them.

The other side.

Rhodes slowly withdrew his hand and shook his head.

At the same time, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

"CP9's strongest in 800 years, Rob Lucky, has completed the hunt and received a reward, 100 talent proficiency, 1 free talent point."

Looking at Lu Qi's corpse, Rhodes muttered to himself, "Whether it's life or death, is it valuable, you are indeed a qualified opponent, but unfortunately, you met me too late." ”

Luki's death added hatred to the hearts of Kaku and the others, but this hatred was not directed at Rhodes, but at Spandham, and there was no need for Lafitte to guide him.

When Rhodes first defeated them, he didn't kill Lucci.

It was a dignified defeat.

……

A moment later.

"So, Ghost Hand Pirates, welcome to everyone."

Lafitte completed the final guidance, smiling at Kaku and the others, what was needed next was a long period of brainwashing and deep hypnosis, which happened to cooperate with Luo to heal Kaku and the others at the same time, and increase loyalty to the maximum.

Kaku and the others didn't speak, and although they decided to join the Ghost Hand Pirates, Luki's death put all of them in a low mood.

Soon.

Kaku and Rhodes return to the Shadow, with Rowe tasked with healing their wounds, while Lafitte goes a step further in brainwashing and hypnosis.

A month later, the Ghost Shadow returned to the Great Voyage with Kaku and the others, and placed them on a large island, where they were given telephonic bugs.

The Ghost Hand Intelligence Organization has begun its work.

At the same time, the World Government changed the bounty of the Ghost Hand Pirates, with Robin's bounty changed to 80 million Baileys and Lafitte's bounty changed to 120 million Baileys.

As for Rhodes' bounty, it was raised to ......

300 million Baileys!
